Here are some of the Equipment setup for the 4 footer :

Becktett Skimmer with Rio 26H pump and waste collector

DIY CR with 2 cylinders - 1 filled with Active Carbon Meida and 1 filled with bioballs

1x Skizm FR150 filled with RowaPHOS media

1 x Reef Maniacs CR with CO2 Cylinder/Electronic Solenoid valve/Atman feeder pump

2 x Eheim 1260 return pump connected to two outlets to display tank

1 x Resun CL650 1/4 HP Chiller

1 x Resun SP3800 (2000L/H) was used to T-off the water to the chiller and the DIY CR (water flows from the first CR to the second CR and then finally flow to the return compartment. The water from the chiller also flow into the return compartment from the skimmer compartment)

The actual size of the main tank : 4.5 ft (L) x 2 ft (W) x 2.5 ft (H) with 12mm class and the sump is 2.5 ft x 1.5 x 1.5 :)

The last part on the equipment list for the 4 footer - Lighting

I use 2 x 150W MH plus 2 x T5 Blus tubs..

The two MH light were actually transferred from the 6 footer when I brought as a package - as I was setting up my 6 footer as the SPS tank, I need something more solid...

opp.... forgot about the one last important part... the water flow...

The water circulation is quite sufficient actually - supported by two return pumps (Eheim 1260) - one at the left side front corner and the other from the right side back corner - this provides a all cycle of the water movement to the whole tank...

I added 2 x sunsun 201 wavemakers connected to a Ocean Pluse-Due (WM-01) wave controller which allows you to create three different types of flow (Laminar flow, Turbulent Flow and Surge Flow) - The controller is switched off by a timer every night when the two MH lights are off duty and when the blue moonlight is up...

I think the 2 x sunsun wavemakers and the Occean Pluse-Due controller offer the most "value of money" alternative as compared to other branded wave makers in the market thus far.. Ok... this wavemaker thingy is not Pasar Malam items ... but believe or not .. the whole wave movement setup cost me less than S$100... :eyebrow:

bro careful sun sun wavemaker if you keep on and off, it will suck in instead of pushing water out..

Hey...thank for the tips... I had experienced that with the 202 model... the 201 and 202 are the two flow head types... If you consider 1 flow head suck in the water and the other suck out ... it acutally create a stronger water flow.. :rolleyes:
